Oakland Teachers Association Contract Campaign SupportHow we can help

January 9, 2019

Teachers in the Oakland Unified School District have been working without a contract since July 2017, and teachers there are demanding smaller class sizes and salary increases, which would help attract and retain faculty. The Oakland Education Association and school district have entered factfinding, the final step in impasse process. A strike could be initiated in late January/early February.

Art Build with OEA (January 18-20)

CFA members also are invited to join OEA for their Art Build, which will be held at the Oakland Education Association headquarters, 272 E 12th St., Oakland.

The Art Build will be held from 5-10 pm Friday, Jan. 18, and from 10 am-10 pm on Saturday, Jan. 19 and Sunday, Jan. 20.

Teachers, students, and allies in public education are encouraged to participate and produce images that will be used in the struggle to defend and promote public schools. All the images people create will be displayed and some used on banners, drop banners, parachute banners, screen printed posters, t-shirts, and screen-printed picket signs.
